If you are changing your look or going retro this year and need to achieve a proper '70s look with your makeup then there are 3 first factors you have to consider. These things include the skin, eyes and the lips. The way that you apply the makeup will make a big difference when you are making an attempt to achieve a 1970s look.
The skin was a big change when the '70s came around. Girls no longer wore foundation and powder but they went for a natural glow that they already had in their skin. No foundation was being worn in any way. Instead, women used lots of moisturizer which gave their skin a natural shine of their skin tone. The goal was to have a rosy glow all alone without makeup at all over their face. If you have blots that you completely have to cover up or an uneven skin tone then you may use blendable foundation which will still allow you to have the '70s look. Don't wear powder though because you desire your skin to be shiny. Some girls used to use moisturizers that had a bit of glitter in it to contribute to the shine.
The eyes changed in a big way when the 1970s came also. Ladies ditched the fake eye lashes and continued with the natural look. Not only did they no longer wear fake eye lashes but they didn't paint their eyelids with black eye liner nor did they use black mascara. All three of these makeup items were tossed away. The eyes were about natural glimmer. Pearlescent shadows were used across the eyelids to give glisten. Natural brown mascara was employed or no mascara was used in any way. Girls no longer wore eye liner, just the sparkling shadows that were light blue, pink, silver and gold.
The lips did not change too radically in the 1970s. There had been a slight difference because they went and did become a focal point. Ladies no longer went with a pale cover up lipstick but they changed to a gloss that was frosted and glossy. Everything on a '70s lady face shone, even the lips. To maintain this look of '70s lips you would like to outline your lip with a lip liner. Go a shade darker than the frost that you are going to use. Draw totally around the bounds of the lip. Fill in the lip with a glistening or glossy frosted lipstick.
The 1970s is the easiest decade for applying makeup and making an attempt to recreate on any face. This is as all the hard eye liner drawing, putting on fake eye lashes, and other stuff went away. Women went through an era of being happy with their natural beauty and the purpose of the '70s was to bring out the shine in their natural facial features by employing moisturizers on the skin. Glimmering eye shadows were used along with sparkling lipsticks that were frosted. The lips basically looked white and frosted which brought focus to the lips in the '70s.

Magnetic Jewelry - Heal Your Body With Magnetic Jewelry
Adorning the body with clothing and jewelry has been a practice perhaps as early as the dawn of humanity. In some cultures, jewelry is not only an article of beauty, but it is also an aid for the improvement of one's health. Magnetic Jewelry, crystals, and stones have been used to treat ailments, aches, and general pains in the body. The use of Magnetic Jewelry, in particular, has been popular in certain ancient cultures. Until now, they are being used by locals from as far as China, in which they are already part of the traditional Chinese medicine. They are now being introduced into the contemporary times, where more people can take advantage of its health benefits.
Magnetic Jewelry can be in the form of necklaces, earrings, rings, and bracelets. They are usually made of magnetic stainless steel, titanium, hematite, tungsten, copper, and semi-precious stones. These materials can be fashioned into intricate pieces of fine Magnetic Jewelry. They can also be combined with other precious materials to create various styles and designs. Most pieces of jewelry are handmade in order to carefully handle the materials and preserve their natural beauty. Most styles are as unique as the materials themselves. You can select from distinct shades of greys, silver, or chrome. There are a lot to choose from in terms of size, color, and material. Designs for bracelets or necklaces can either suit men or women, or both.
Magnetism or the use of magnetic energy is said to be effective in improving blood circulation, relieving body aches, alleviating joint pains, and helping those who experience bouts of insomnia and migraines. It promotes the natural healing of the body by way of natural stimulation. There are no invasive procedures or tablets and solutions that you have to regularly intake. When Magnetic Jewelry is worn on the body, you can reap the health benefits while adorning yourself with a lovely piece of accessory.
Individuals react differently to the use of Magnetic Jewelry, as how different conditions and body types are relieved faster than others when taking in a cough syrup or a cold tablet. Some may see the effects after a number of days, others may not see an improvement until after a few weeks of wearing them. It is often advised that you wear them all the time, at first. You should see the effects with regular use, feeling more energized and relaxed.
You do not have to get a whole set consisting of the different pieces of jewelry. You can either choose to wear a bracelet or necklace alone, depending on your taste and level of comfort. They are made to last for a long time, so you can use them over and over as needed. As in buying any type of jewelry, you look for quality made creations that should last you a lifetime. You can give one as a thoughtful and unique gift to a friend, family, or a loved one. Not only do they wear them for fashion or style, but also to improve one's health and longevity.

Hair No-nos: What to Avoid When Using GHD
For those who were not born with really great hair, having a GHD hair straightener might seem like a godsend. However, one must also know that exercising caution is necessary with this tool - that using it every single day will eventually singe out your hair if you are not careful. Therefore, take time out to know more about the hair no-nos when using your GHD.
For starters, did you know that it is better to invest in a more expensive hair straightener like GHD than putting your money in a cheap version? Not all hair straighteners are alike, and when the subject of hair care is concerned the quality and safety brought by more expensive offerings will definitely be very much appreciated by the users. GHD hair straighteners protect your hair from singes and unwanted currents of heat. You will never experience the GHD hair straightener short-circuiting or blowing a fuse while being used, so No-No #1 is don't be a cheapskate!
If you are a responsible user of hair straighteners, you probably know that you hair will require more moisturizing care compared to people who do not use hair straighteners. The second No-no is to skip out on this aspect! To combat dryness, make sure you use a leave in product for your hair like the ones you will find from Redken. It is not enough to use conditioner, even if it is from Redken as well. Using a leave in product locks in the moisture during the hair straightening process so each hair shaft will have a protective protein coating to keep it shiny and soft.
The third No-no for those using hair straighteners like GHD is letting the straightener stay clamped on your hair for a long time! When hair is particularly wet even with Redken leave-on products, the sizzling sound it creates is actually burning your hair already! This is why it is better to air dry your hair so it is just damp when you straighten it. It will only take a couple of swipes to your hair to get that straight, thus saving your hair from burns and singes that you definitely do not want. So word of advice, dry it a bit ahead of time and keep clamps minimum!
And finally, the fourth No-no that hair straightener users should be made aware of is sleeping with your hair wet. This is because when you sleep with your hair wet, the hair memory remembers the last position it was in and so it will make straightening harder and more difficult for you. This also means it will take a longer time for you to get the work done, thus continually exposing your hair to unwanted heat that will thereby ruin the healthy condition of your hair.
Indeed, there are many things to avoid when it comes to hair care and the use of hair straighteners. However, being vigilant about these things will definitely pay off in the end and thus leave you with great hair that has no problem undergoing the heat of the straightener.
You may use Redken products and a GHD straightener, but there are some things about hair care which you should still be aware of.
For starters, did you know that it is better to invest in a more expensive hair straightener like GHD than putting your money in a cheap version? Not all hair straighteners are alike, and when the subject of hair care is concerned the quality and safety brought by more expensive offerings will definitely be very much appreciated by the users. GHD hair straighteners protect your hair from singes and unwanted currents of heat. You will never experience the GHD hair straightener short-circuiting or blowing a fuse while being used, so No-No #1 is don't be a cheapskate!
If you are a responsible user of hair straighteners, you probably know that you hair will require more moisturizing care compared to people who do not use hair straighteners. The second No-no is to skip out on this aspect! To combat dryness, make sure you use a leave in product for your hair like the ones you will find from Redken. It is not enough to use conditioner, even if it is from Redken as well. Using a leave in product locks in the moisture during the hair straightening process so each hair shaft will have a protective protein coating to keep it shiny and soft.
The third No-no for those using hair straighteners like GHD is letting the straightener stay clamped on your hair for a long time! When hair is particularly wet even with Redken leave-on products, the sizzling sound it creates is actually burning your hair already! This is why it is better to air dry your hair so it is just damp when you straighten it. It will only take a couple of swipes to your hair to get that straight, thus saving your hair from burns and singes that you definitely do not want. So word of advice, dry it a bit ahead of time and keep clamps minimum!
And finally, the fourth No-no that hair straightener users should be made aware of is sleeping with your hair wet. This is because when you sleep with your hair wet, the hair memory remembers the last position it was in and so it will make straightening harder and more difficult for you. This also means it will take a longer time for you to get the work done, thus continually exposing your hair to unwanted heat that will thereby ruin the healthy condition of your hair.
Indeed, there are many things to avoid when it comes to hair care and the use of hair straighteners. However, being vigilant about these things will definitely pay off in the end and thus leave you with great hair that has no problem undergoing the heat of the straightener.

History of fashion: the Byzantine empire
In the 3rd century the Roman Empire was dying. The emperor Constantine, however, would begin the transformation process from which an Eastern Christian Empire was to emerge when he created the second capital of the Roman Empire in Constantinople in the year 324. Located on the European side of the Bosporus, on the crossroad between the East and the West, Constantinople would become the most opulent city in the world. The finest luxury goods - most notably silk - were imported from Asia. In turn, Constantinople exported to Western Europe works of art, silk vestments, papyrus, porcelain, glass ware, incense, and perfumes.
During eleven centuries the Byzantine Empire experienced a period of extreme brilliance, under Justinian (ad 527-565), followed by a temporary decline; then, from the ninth century to the thirteenth, an extraordinary development, followed by a gradual weakening marked by serious economic and political losses, which ended in the capture of Constantinople by the Turks in 1453.
Byzantine costume reflected those diverse influences. It presented characteristics of ancient Classical costume, but it was mainly influenced by Near-Eastern sumptuousness in its nature and colour. This fusion was prolongued until the end of the Empire by the empirial court.
Women
Women had a secluded and restricted existence dominated by their domestic obligations. The sole exception were women of the nobility, especially Theodora who held a powerful role in the empire.
Costume
Byzantine style was influenced by both Greek and Roman attire, and was characterized by oriental opulence. Shape was simple, but bright colors, fringes, tassels, and jeweled embroidery, all of eastern origin, made clothing extravagantly luxurious. clothing denoted stature and rank.
Byzantine wardrobe was rich and complex due to the diverse origin of many of byzantine garments. The trousers were borrowed from the Huns or the Persians. The tzitsakfoncame from the Khazares. The soft boots, the paragaudion, a gold-embroidered tunic with a purple-dyed leather belt, the kandys, the collar and the skaramangion, the ovoidal tiara were all Persians. The cavvadior, the skaranicon and the granatza were introduced by the Assyrians, and the Medes gave the necklace.
In spite its opulence and splendor, byzantine clothing reflected the new Christian values. Its purpose was to conceal the body. Physical shape and sex disappeared under the long billowing tunics. Garments literally made a statement of religious devotion for they were often embroidered with religious scenes. At first there was no distinction between the dress of clerics and the rest of the population, but then the former were forbidden to follow fashion trends. Catholic and Orthodox vestments look today the same way they did once.
Imperial costume
Emperors, who acted both as head of the state and the church, had a lavish existence and their ceremonial attire contributed to the empire's reputation for sartorial excess.
From the 4th to the 6thcentury emperors wore a gown woven of gold thread and a chlamys fastened on the right shoulder with a rich fibula. Justinian also wore the Roman consuls toga, the trabea, a wide scarf crossed on the chest, and the paragaudion. Empresses wore a white tunic with a vertical band of embroidery, and a gown with elbow-length sleeves.
In the 10th century, Imperial costume was completed with the loros, a long scarf embroidered with gold thread and precious stones.
In the 12th century Byzantium transformed the caftan worn by Persian soldiers into an elegant garment. A new coat, buttoned down the front, was in fashion. The Imperial crown was then completely closed, in the shape of a small dome: the camelaukion.
During the last centuries of Byzantium, the Emperor wore the saccoz, a purple or black stiff gown, with fastened at the wrists sleeves.
Civilian costume
There is far less known about the civilian costume for it is not as well documented and what we do know, we have gathered from the description of writers from that epoch. Ordinary men wore clothes characteristic for the Steppe people, a blouse or tunic, trousers and footwear, taken from the Huns. Breeches were tight, made from patterned or embroidered cloth, and were worn tucked into the boots, which reached mid-calf.
Women's clothing
Women's clothing was meant to conceal the body and hide the gender. It consisted of numerous layers starting by a tight-fitting chemise that fell to the ankle. The tunic worn on top could be either fitted or girded just above or at waist. It was shorter than the chemise underneath and so it revealed it. Other staples in the women's' wardrobe were the stola, the palla, and a long veil, which fell behind the head, or was folded forward and draped over the arm.
Theodora's rich silk dresses were enhanced with precious stones and lavish gold embroidery. She wore ropes of pearls, emeralds, and rubies, and for ceremonial purposes a heavy crown with pearls and emeralds that cascaded down to her chest.
Men's clothing
In the early ages of the empire, byzantine clothing copied Roman. Men wore a tight-fitting white tunic with long sleeves, which reached either the ankles or the knees. Over this undergarment they wore the dalmatika, a red and gold tunic with long wide sleeves. Men's wardrobe included also the hosa, a woolen or fabric hose, the bracoor breeches, which later on were replaced by pants or drawers, the Greeks chlamys, that they wore with the tablion, a rectangular piece of cloth inset at waist height, and the Roman pallium, which shared only the name with its predecessor.
The toga was initially worn by most, but from the 6th century onward became the distinctive mark of consuls. It was replaced by the cloak, which could be found in three styles: a rectangle piece of fabric, which was worn wrapped around the shoulders; a semicircular cape, which was also fastened at the shoulder; and the circular cape, which was sewn up the front and had an opening for the head.

Natural Mineral Makuep Give the gift of Mineral Makeup to Fight Acne
The holiday season is fast approaching, and perhaps you've got a special someone who suffers from acne. The dilemma is how to present them with a gift this holiday season that helps them to fight acne without seeming overly rude or insulting in the process.
Believe me, some people do get offended at the idea of you trying to help them with "practical" gifts to help them with their condition. Even if it was kindly meant. Most people want some that is not only pleasing to the eye, but also has both use and meaning in their world.
For the acne sufferer, they may wish to buy a bottle of Proactiv for themselves, but receiveing it as a gift is another story altogher. Giving something that is astheitally pleasing and helps them to fight and prevent acne really can be a challenge.
There is an option however; mineral makeup is a solution that is not only pleasing to the eyes, but is also recommended by dermatologists the world over to help fight acne and soothe the skin. Because Mineral makeup is oil free and ground into such a fine powder that it does not clog pores it is ideal for preventing further breakouts.
Mineral makeup is made of all natural minerals extracted from the earth and ground into a fine powder. Different combinations of the minerals produce different colors for a wide range of colors so there is no need for dies or chemicals.
Mineral makeup is not soluable in water and sheilds the skin from moisture getting into the pores when worn. If moisture to get into the pores the bacteria that feeds acne dies. The primary ingredients within mineral makeup are Titanium Dioxide and Zinc Oxide. You may recognise these minerals from the ingredients list on the back of any sunscreen bottle. This is because these minerals are natural sunblocks. Zinc Oxide is also known for it's skin soothing properties.
Mineral makeup is very pleasing to the eye because the powders blend together onto the skin seamlessly and need such a small amount to cover the skin that they look very natural. Both Zinc Oxide and Titanium Dioxide also reflact light and give the face a beautiful glow without looking shiny.
Be sure you check the labels, however for Bismouth Oxychloride, a mineral added to some top name brands to give the makeup a shiny look. Bismouth Oxychloride can irritate acne.
Giving the gift of all natural healthy beauty this season does not have to be impossible with mineral makeup.

Antique Jewelry - Investment and Fashion
There are two major reasons for purchasing antique jewelry: as an investment and for fashion. While the term 'fashionable antiques' might appear to be an oxymoron, the wearing of old but tasteful jewelry has always been regarded as both fashionable and acceptable in society, and in fact a study of antique jewelry down the ages can tell a lot about the history and culture of a country.
The purpose of jewelry was originally to adorn ourselves, and then became a symbol of status. The ability to afford rare and expensive gems and metals was displayed publicly by wearing them on one's person. "Look at me: I am richer than you!"
As design became increasingly important, the famous jewelry houses and designers such as Fabergé, Tiffany and Cartier were born from their unique design capabilities, but as the 20th century came along, design became secondary to setting as many diamonds as possible in a piece to increase its actual raw material cost as opposed to its perceived value.
It is doubtful if today's jewelry will ever become as sought after as that of the great fashion houses and jewelers, and now is the time to purchase antique jewelry for investment because, as it is snapped up and placed in collections, there appears little capable of taking its place. There is still a lot of antique jewelry to be found in antique shops, and even on eBay you will see many fine pieces selling at affordable prices.
It is still worn, of course, although yesterday's fine pieces do not always fit with today's clothes fashions. Nevertheless, as taste is replaced by price, this is less important a factor than it once was, and the days appear to be over when jewelry was designed to suit particular styles of clothing and fabrics. Today, anything goes as long as it is bright, glittering and expensive. In many ways, “Bling” has superseded taste and sensitive design.
So, what should you be looking for when purchasing antique jewelry - whether it is for investment or fashion? First check the symmetry of the piece. True antiques are not symmetrical: they are hand-made and each side is slightly different than the other. You can also tell a lot from the fastenings, because barrel clasps are modern, as are post and clip and clip-back earring fastenings (1930s at earliest). An antique will be smooth to the feel, and have no jaggy edges that catch on your hands and clothing.
Platinum and white gold were not used until the 20th century, and earlier 19th century jewelry was made of silver, although gold was used. Also keep in mind that gemstone cutting machines were not used until the mid 19th century, so any modern cut was not possible until then, the elongated baguette cut being introduced in the art deco and art nouveaux pieces of the 1920s.
If you intend purchasing antique jewelry for investment, therefore, it will pay to learn about the subject. Either that or never purchase a piece until it has been checked by an expert. Fashion, on the other hand, is a different thing entirely. While real antique jewelry prices can be set by the piece itself, the value of fashion jewelry is largely set by trends rather than intrinsic value.
Art deco jewelry, art nouveaux, retro - name it what you will, but a large proportion of jewelry designed and produced under these labels had little real value, and some even less in terms of design. To take a corollary with furniture, the 'in' furniture style of the 1950s and early 1960's, 'G-Plan' had no mitigating features other than that it was different, and so became the furniture fashion statement of its era. Although it is now enjoying a resurgence under the label of 'retro', G-Plan will never be regarded as antique, irrespective of how old it is.
That is as true as the fact that you could never imagine true antiques being referred to as 'retro', yet the term can be, and has been applied to the art deco jewelry designs of the 1920s. Whether these designs will ever become fashionable again is another question, but it does raise a question as to antique jewelry and its place in fashion vis a vis that acquired for investment.
Would an art deco piece of jewelry be purchased as a fashion item? Not at the moment, but perhaps as costume jewelry. Would it be acquired as an investment? Doubtful! Can the same be said of art nouveaux? And what else? So where does fashion end and investment begin, or is there no defining line, and do people purchase the jewelry that appeals to them rather than for its projected future value?
One thing is certain. Real antique jewelry has a part to play in the worlds of fashion and of investment, and it is wise to take expert advice prior to parting with your money irrespective of your purpose in buying it. However, would you wear your investment? Only you will know that, and even then only when the time comes to choose - or to show off!

Best Hair Care Products for African American Hair
When it comes to managing African American and Bi-racial hair there are only two hair care companies on the market that will leave your hair in salon quality condition and not greasy or dull. You have to stop using Suave, Salon Selectives, Motions, and Alberto VO5, because although affordable, hey will leave your hair type dry and brittle. If you want professional looking hair,without making a salon visit each week,then try Ojon Hair Products or Beauty 4 Ashes's GodHead™ hair care Products. Both companies produce superior hair care products that are amazing, especially if you have damaged hair and are looking to grow healthier hair. The major difference between the two companies is that Beauty 4 Ashes produces completely all-natural products that contain no chemicals and sends faith scriptures with all of their products. Since, both companies produce high quality products, they are more pricey than your average drugstore shampoo. Therefore, I suggest that you start out with each company's best product, then experiment with other things they produce.
The best Ojon product on the market is their Restorative Hair Treatment, it comes in a small jar with a comb. The product is solid, but liquefies instantly when you rub it in your hands. You can leave the treatment in overnight or wash it out after 30 minutes and your hair should feel and look nice and soft. You can find Ojon product at their online website.
When it comes to Beauty 4 Ashes GodHead products, there is much debate within the hair stylist community on which is the best product. In the United Kingdom, most stylists of African American Hair or Bi-racial hair prefer to use their GodHead™ Max Moisture shampoo and conditioner on their clients' hair, because it has great detangling capabilities, can loosen tight curl patterns, and is filled with over 22 all natural ingredients, such as jojoba, shea, vitamin e, and coconut oil. All these nourish the scalp and grow hair. However, in the United States, most hair stylists prefer GodHead™ Silky Smooth shampoo and conditioner. The GodHead Silky Smooth system contains a vitamin-rich and hair softening sunflower and coconut soap base that is great for damaged hair. Silky Smooth also has a hair-thickening conditioner that can be used as a deep conditioner treatment. It works wonders on chemically treated hair by infusing the scalp with vitamins and the hair strands with natural oils. It produces a rich lather that most customers like. No matter which GodHead™ system you choose, both will give your hair that salon quality look, brilliance, length, and shine. You find their products at wwwdiscoverb4acom
If you are serious about getting your hair into prime condition, remembr to stay away from the drugstore products that contain harsh detergents and sulfates and go with all-natural products over their chemical counterparts. Drugstore hair care products will not only damage your hair in the long run, but are a complete waste of money. You can also have salon quality hair from the convenience of your home. It may cost you a little more upfront, but you will more than make up for the initial loss by the savings you earn when decreasing your time between relaxers and salon visits.

Baby Crew Clothing - Online Fashion Fits Comfortably On Baby Boys
Every parent has at least this in common: you need to buy baby clothes and buy more than you think. Babies are amazing little creatures, and what's even more amazing is their talent for going through a baby tshirt collection in a day it seems. With all the washing that's necessary, even the brightest colors fade, and seams tear, then that cute baby cotton shirt looks like you purchased it at the flea market three years ago. No worries, though, you can have a great-looking son without going too far, in fact, you can do your shopping right from home.
When you shop for your next baby tshirt, or your next dozen, rather - before you hop in the car and drive to dig through stacks of over-styled, commercialized "styles" of tees, you can save yourself the trip. Open your web browser instead and look for "baby crew clothing," for example. You can find great designs from New York's finest boutique in children's wear, all without leaving your seat.
Before dinner's even ready, or dessert for that matter, you can have an order placed of nothing but the finest in American cotton, rendered unbelievably soft, in a style that doesn't detract from your son's natural appeal. Why cover up the handsomest child with a glaring, in-your-face design that takes your eyes off of his? The best fashion, even for a baby cotton shirt, is that which can compliment rather than distract from your son's appearance.
Maybe you are buying for a friend's baby shower, and want to get something that stands out from the rest of the crowds. What says, "I care about you, your friendship means the world to me," more than finding the best in design just for their son? Stand out from the masses, and get the best for your family and your friends. Nothing says it better than a quality gift they won't be able to find just anywhere.
When you shop for those tees, remember that simpler is better. Having a tee that can be worn in the future for other children, siblings or friend's children, is a great return that you won't find in just any clothing manufacturer. When a designer from a New York boutique puts his or her seal of approval on a smaller batch of clothing, for instance, you can rest in the fact that the clothes are made with attention to detail. Shop for baby crew clothing that is made in America, with the finest eye for detail to every stitch and design, and see what a difference in quality you can expect from the fashion gurus just waiting behind your internet connection.

Buying and Selling Vintage Clothing
Vintage clothing has become hugely popular in the last few years as people look for ways to get their own style, customise their outfits and find something a bit different from the usual clothing available on the high street. Vintage clothing is usually sold through vintage boutiques or online through online vintage stores or clothes swapping or selling websites. Before you begin to buy and sell vintage clothing, you need to think carefully about what you would like to achieve. Are you hoping to make money by buying items and selling them on at a higher price or are you looking for beautiful pieces that you can keep and treasure for ever.
If you are buying and selling vintage for the purpose of making money, you will need to research which types of items and designers sell most easily and for the most money. You will also need to find some where to buy vintage clothes at a very good price to allow you to add money and sell them on. eBay is an option although you will have to pay a fee and you will be up against many people when bidding for an item. There is are also second hand clothes swapping websites that allow you to buy sell and swap clothes for free saving you money.
If you are looking for vintage items for yourself, you will need to consider which designer styles you like or what type of pieces you are looking for. It can be difficult to get the right size so if you are not visiting a shop where you can try items on, be sure to take your measurements and ask the seller to give you the exact measurements of the clothing. Remember to ask the seller lots of questions including the condition of the clothing, whether it comes from a non smoking household, what it is made of and details on the care label. There are a huge variety of vintage shops both online and off and so it is definitely worth doing some research and having a good look around to find exactly what you are looking for.

Best Kept Makeup Secret: Mineral Illuminizer
Mineral makeup has seen a resurgence in the beauty world. Women have discovered that less is more and that makeup can be healthy for them. Mineral makeup has become a beauty essential. One aspect that has gained popularity is the mineral illuminizer.
What makes mineral makeup different?
Mineral makeup is created using natural minerals from the earth. The most common ingredients are serecite mica, titanium dioxide, iron oxide and zinc oxide. The minerals are crushed and made into powders that are used all over the body.
Mineral makeup is healthy for the skin. The powdered minerals melt into the skin and become one. They are not harmful to the skin and do not clog the pores like some cosmetics can do. Mineral makeup is lightweight so you don’t feel like you are wearing a mask.
That’s all the good stuff. Mineral makeup is not boring either. These minerals have a variety of colors thanks to the iron oxides they contain. You can find the same beautiful exciting colors that traditional makeup has to offer.
Illuminizers
If you’ve never heard of illuminizers you might not be alone. They are similar to bronzers. Bronzers are used to give your skin a tanned look without the benefit of the sun. Over time, the sun’s rays damage the skin and can create all sorts of problems not the least of which is skin cancer.
With mineral bronzers, you just apply them to the areas that you want to appear tanned and go on your way. That includes your shoulders, legs and arms. The minerals meld with your skin so there is no streaking to give away your secret.
Illuminizers have another job. Ever see those scenes in movies where the woman is supposed to look ethereal? Her face has a soft glow that makes her look both sensual and otherworldly at the same time? You can have that look if you want with illuminizers.
The minerals found in illuminizers are the same healthy high quality ones found in other mineral products:
• Titanium oxide
• Iron Oxide
• Mica
The colors are softer than your bronzers, thanks to the iron oxides. Illuminizers reflect light instead of adding shimmer (like bronzers) which bathes your face in that glow we talked about above. Your skin will appear radiant and fine lines and wrinkles disappear. Dull skin gets a boost when illuminizing minerals are applied.
How do you apply illuminizers?
Illuminizers can be applied over your makeup like a finishing powder. Once your makeup has set, brush on a light dusting of illuminizer mineral powder. The result is a softer more natural hue to your face. It’s like you only better. Illuminizers can be applied all over your face for a lasting youthful look.
Illuminizers are the best kept secret in the mineral makeup world. Not only are these minerals healthy for your skin but they can create any look that you want for your face and body. Get healthy and gorgeous with an illuminizing finish.

Proper Makeup Application will Make You Beautiful
Proper makeup application should accentuate the positive, and hide flaws. makeup tone and
consistency is important, but of more importance is the type of lighting you will be seen in. You have probably read that makeup for day should be light and applied simply, using neurtral colors. This is because most office lighting is bright fluorescent lighting with a blueish undertone. This type of lighting sharpens all colors and sharply defines your features. In fluorescent lighting blue eyed people have a ruddy skine tone, while hazel and brown eyed people have a yellowish or greenish undertone to their skin. Hence, for day makeup, it is important to choose makeup colors and consistency that creates a sheer, natural and neutral look. This can best be accomplished by choosing makeup colors that closely match your own skin tone.
For daytime makeup, the consistency of the makeup is determined by your skin type. Foundation is available in liquid, cream, powder, cake and the new whipped forms. Basically, choose oil free or powder foundation if you have oily skin. Combination skin and normal or dry skin appear more natural with liquid, cream or whipped foundation types. Cream foundation is usually used for skin that has flaws to hide and for going out in the evening.
A number of brands claim to produce the best coverage for you face. For day use, a sheer coverage is best, one that matches your skin tone. For evening use, a heavier consistency may be chosen, to add color to your complexion.
A thin film of liquid foundation is best for a natural look and is commonly used for daily application. Liquid foundation can be water based, for oily skin, or oil based for dry, normal or combination skin. Most women can use a foundation with yellow undertones, although it is available in pink and orange undertones.
Cream foundation is available in compacts and sticks and is the type used by most makeup artists because it covers the skin well and gives a flawless finish. Powder foundation is suitable for women with oily skin and in geographic locations where the humidity is quite high. These foundations can be applied as cream to powder or as powder. They give a dry fresh faced look to the skin.
When applying makeup on a daily basis only high quality products should be used since they affect the health of the skin. Powder products are preferable since they control shine and have fewer preservatives and skin irritants than liquid or cream forms. If you must wear liquid makeup daily, choose one with a silicone base, since it will not cause acne. Use waterproof cosmetics only occassionally, since the products used to remove them will also remove the outer layer of sebum on the skin. Choose a foundation with an SPF of 15 or higher for daily use.
Black mascara and eyliner are the least allergenic of colorants. Eyebrow and eyeliner pencils that are wax based are good for daily use and they can be removed with only water. Using light earth tones in your daily makeup palette not only makes you look natural but are less irritating to the skin.
For evening, the lighting is usually dim or a warm toned incandescent light. This lower lit type of lighting allows us to use brighter and bolder colors to add more contrast to the face. For a dimly lit night out in the discotheque, we can use a lot of makeup with bold colors to add more contrast to the face. For a good base, wash your face with warm water, then plunge your face in a basin filled with ice water. This will cause makeup to last much longer. Apply a good tinted moisturizer or cream makeup. Set this base by going over it with loose or pressed powder.
Skin illunimator powders can give you a radiant glow. Pearly brown and gray eye shadows and red or dark hued lipstick make you look sophisticated. Bronze eyeliner will make you look instantly festive. Liberally apply black eyeliner and black mascara to bring out your eyes. Blush is usually the last cosmetic applied to the face when doing makeup. The creative use of blush can make your face look wider or longer. To create a fresh faced look, smile, exposing the apples of your cheeks, and apply dusty pink blush to the apples of your cheeks and up to your temples and lightly on your nose and chin.
To make your face look wider, with sculpted cheekbones, apply blush on the cheekbone from under the center of the eye to the temple. Suck in cheeks and apply a darker shade in the hollows of your cheeks in the shape of a 'C' up to the temples, but not higher than the eyebrows.
Frosted blush is generally not a good idea. Frosted highlighting is available in the in the illuminating powders currently on the market. Gel and liquid blush stain must be washed off and makeup completely redone if too much is applied. Powder blushes are more easily controlled and may be blotted off if too much is applied or can be freshened up throughout the day or evening as needed.

Nobody is perfect, especially when we are talking about our faces. But, there are a lot of things that you can do in order to cover these imperfections. This article will be showing you how to conceal imperfections on your face. This will help you have a more attractive and gorgeous looking face.
Concealer is a product that will help you hide face imperfections, allowing you to have a flawless-looking face. It will also help your eye shadows last all throughout the day. There are also different types of cover sticks for different spot colors. The green cover stick will mask red spots on your skin. Yellow areas on your skin can be covered by using a cover stick with a purple color, while dark marks need the one with an orange cover stick.
Always remember that cover sticks should always use covers sticks before applying foundation, while concealers should be used after the foundation.

Generation-X Fashion Designer and Their Atitude
As the saying goes “Clothes make the man”, therefore it is very clear the clothe does make an impression. But who comes as the rescuer in the today’s time is the Generation-X who has entered with full swing in the fashion industry as the fashion designer. They have brought the new designer which has instigated the unease in the old designers. The fashion industry in the world is going through a boom phase. The export of the clothing material by the Eastern Countries to the Western Countries in the raw form, have increase the opportunities for the developing countries as a whole.
This upsurge in the fashion has given many fashion designers a chance to show their talent in the world arena. Earlier fashion and fashion designers were synonymous with the Paris, the world capital of the fashion, but now the designers of some uncharted territories are making rave review and because of this now the focus of fashion from the Paris has dwindled a lot. One can now name Shanghai, Mumbai, New York and London with the fashion and wild design.
Women in particular are making a beeline to be in the industry and it has in a way helped to increase the influence of women designers in designer world. Well, these designers know the requirement of today’s woman more specifically as the women are the largest customer in the market for the designer product. Therefore, women fashion designers are welcomed whole heartedly.
But are the fashion of male fashion designer has been a neglected. No, rather the male and female fashion designers are in market and every body is making a niche for them. Therefore, gender is becoming more redundant in the present day context, but the innovative and creative designs by these fashion designers are commendable.
These fashion designers are bringing in the new technology from computers to everything, from different clothes material and designs from the history and everywhere. They are making the ramp abuzz with their new style, sexy designs and what not. The other greatest things about these designers are that they are making everything looks perfect. They have been suggesting the hairdo’s of the models. They are into makeup, foot wear, jewelry, and other fashion accessories like watch, tops and bangles to goggles. Phew!! Great.
But why younger people are are getting into this world as fashion designers. Because of the instant fame and money involve in this business. Though the road for the success in very difficult and hard but they have been here because the money flow in the work has been great even if they don’t get the big success the avenue are very good for large number of people because big fashion house requires the budding talent as fashion designer to churn out the new design catering to the desires of the fashion hungry people of the present world.

12 Free Beauty Tips: Make-Up And Cosmetics
Use these 12 free beauty tips to ensure you get the maximum benefit from your choice of make-up and cosmetics:
1. When shopping for lip color and eye shadow, put a clean sheet of white paper in your bag. New lip colors can be tested on the paper along with a strip of eye shadow. You can then examine the colors in daylight outside, away from the artificial lighting in the store.
2. Fragrance: Use two light formulas together to lock a scent in rather than a heavy application of one fragrance which can overwhelm those close to you. Using a scented body cream and then lightly spraying with an eau de toilette or parfum of the same scent will still result in a long-lasting effect.
3. Just use regular cold cream to remove oil-based makeup.
4. Make your nails seem more slender by applying a dark nail varnish down the center part of the nail being careful not to take it right to the edge of the sides of nail.
5. When testing the color of a foundation and you are already wearing a foundation, use the areas on your neck or inner arm. The skin tone in these areas matches the face more closely than the hands and a better judgment can be made.
6. To find the best spot to apply blush, smile widely, take note of where the cheek rises to a round shape. This lifted part of the cheek is the best place for blush to look natural as a flush will often color this area of the cheek.
7. For concealer to last many hours, be sure to apply it in small amounts at a time in two or three layers. This technique guarantees long wear.
8. With oily skin, avoid toners that contain alcohol as these can dry out the skin and block impurities beneath the surface. To avoid over drying the skin use toners containing AHA's. They help to smooth the skin's texture.
9. Every so often gather all the make-up you have from various places and do an analysis. Be ruthless and throw out anything over two years old, that has a musty odor, that is messy or runny, where liquids have separated, or anything that is dirty or falling apart such as sponges and brushes. By optimizing in this way you can purchase new supplies where needed and keep your make-up kit in top condition.
10. If you have oily skin, use very little moisturizer or, if possible, none at all. Too much moisturizer on oily skin can cause makeup to slide away.
11. If lip lines are a problem, apply lipstick vertically instead of horizontally.
12. When removing makeup, take a Q-tip which has been dipped in a non-oily remover and run it over the eyelashes to take off any remaining mascara.
Costume Jewelry: Care Tips for Worn Out Costume Jewelry
If you have old, worn out, seen better days costume jewelry just lying around gathering dust don't throw it out. You can revitalize those dirty, outdated and broken pieces by following a few simple steps:
Worn out gold or silver plating:
Because typical costume jewelry plating is very thin it can eventually rub off from wear or become damaged from the use of harsh chemicals, creams, or perfumes. If this happens there are several options in gold and silver re-plating solutions that can be found online. Some are fairly simple and can be performed without the use of heat or electricity while others are a little more complex. I found one website in particular that offers a very good variety of plating options (e.g. immersion plating, pen plating) and general plating instructions for precious metals including gold, silver, platinum, and rhodium. It is www.shorinternational.com. Click on the contents and search box and then plating gateway. One word of caution: I would recommend buying only cyanide free plating solutions as cyanide is poisonous. For silver lovers there is one product that I have personally used that has worked well for me and it is called Silver Brite. This easy to use cream polishes, cleans and re-plates in one step. It is very easy to use and fairly inexpensive. Just rub the cream on with an applicator sponge or a Q-tip for small items and rub off with the buffing cloth that is included with the kit. The result is a shiny, clean silver finish.
Tarnished or dirty:
Cleaning costume jewelry is simple but choose your cleaner wisely. Only use a jewelry cleaner that specifically states that it is safe for costume jewelry and read the ingredients to make sure that it does not contain alcohol, acids, or ammonia because these can strip the gold or silver plate. Use a children's soft bristle tooth brush for cleaning around costume jewelry stones. I do not recommend submerging rhinestone jewelry as the stones may become loose and fall out.
A light tarnish can be easily buffed away with a soft jewelers cloth. A good jewelry polish works great in restoring heavily tarnished items.
Loose or missing stones:
If a stone such as a cubic zirconia, plastic, or glass has become loose or fallen out a drop or two of super glue will do the trick. Just be careful not to use too much. You certainly don't want the glue to leak out and cause the piece to stick to your skin or another object. Most of the time a single drop will suffice unless it is a very large stone in which case you may want to use two drops. If you cannot find the missing stone there are companies online that sell loose cz stones if you have a special chain or ring band you want to salvage. Simply do an internet search for cz stones.
Broken clasp:
If your necklace or bracelet has a broken clasp make sure it is the actual clasp that is broken. The problem may be a broken jump ring which is a tiny metal ring that is open in one spot which connects the clasp to the chain. If this is the problem it can be easily fixed. First identify what kind of clasp it is. There are several types (e.g. lobster clasp which is shaped like a lobster claw and has a tiny spring loaded lever, a magnetic clasp which is just as it sounds) then visit your local craft store or do a search online for jewelry clasps and you should find what you need. If the clasp is soldered on you will need to contact a jewelry repair professional.
Outdated:
If you want to provide a more contemporary appeal to your older costume jewelry pieces its easy to mix and match. If you have a pendant with sentimental value bring it to life with a more modern chain. Add new charms to your favorite bracelet or re-plate that old silver necklace with a shiny new gold finish. Be creative!

How to Pick the Right Makeup for You
makeup Rules and Tips
The most important thing about choosing your makeup colors is knowing whether
your skin is cool or warm.
Choose cool colors if:
• Your skin tone is olive, a rosy brown color or a light rosy color, olive, rosy
brown, fair medium rosy and…
• Your hair color is dark, black, blond, or any of the brown tones except a
golden brown and…
• Your eyes are blue, green or hazel
Choose warm colors if:
• Your skin tone is golden or medium fair and…
• Your hair is golden brown, red or strawberry blond and…
• Your eyes are hazel, dark or medium brown
Not everyone fits neatly into one of these categories. If your skin, eyes and hair
colors cross the lines between warm and cool, then use cool colors on the cool
areas of your body and warm on the others. For example, you may need a cool
blush and a warm eye shadow.
The ultimate goal is to paint a picture of beauty using makeup that accentuates your
natural look but does not define it.
